Effect of interleukin-8 on docetaxel resistance in prostate cancer cells: insights into the role of multidrug resistance 1 protein modulation
by Suleyman ILHAN
Abstract
Although docetaxel treatment yields a high survival rate for prostate cancer (PCa), resistance eventually develops in many patients. Understanding the underlying mechanisms of docetaxel resistance is essential for improving treatment strategies. Cytokines, which play a role in cell signaling and immune responses, have been implicated in drug resistance mechanisms. The study rev [...] Read more

Role of macrophage polarization in cancer progression and their association with COVID-19 severity
by Abhimanyu Thakur , Rumpa Banerjee , Sudha Thakur , Gaurav Kumar  and  Shyam Sundar Thakur
Abstract
Macrophages are a type of white blood cells that can exist in two different functional states, known as M1 and M2. M1 macrophages secrete pro-inflammatory cytokines that can promote tumor growth and metastasis, whereas M2 macrophages secrete anti-inflammatory cytokines that can inhibit tumor progression. This phenomenon, referred to as macrophage polarization, has been implicat [...] Read more

The Dual Roles of S-Nitrosylation of Proteins in Cancer: Molecular Mechanisms and Recent Advancements
by Yi Wu , Yanqi Li , Tong Wu  and  Hongmei Yang
Abstract
Protein S-nitrosylation (SNO), emerging as an important posttranslational modification, involves covalent addition of nitric oxide (NO) to the sulfur atom of cysteine in proteins. Accumulated evidence suggests that protein SNO plays crucial roles in pathophysiological mechanisms in cancer, which is attracting great attention. However, there are still controversies about whether [...] Read more

Cell membrane-coated nanoparticles for cancer therapy
by Yasir Hameed , Mohsen Nabi-Afjadi , Yuan Gu  and  Long Wu
Abstract
Despite the advantages of nanoscale drug delivery systems, traditional nanoparticles often encounter challenges such as detection and elimination by the immune system. To circumvent these limitations, scientists have created biomimetic nanoparticles that extend circulation time, decrease clearance rates, and optimize drug delivery. The integration of cell membranes onto nanopar [...] Read more

Overcoming MTDH and MTDH-SND1 complex: driver and potential therapeutic target of cancer
by Hao Shen , Jiayu Ding , Jiaying Ji , Binjian Jiang , Xiao Wang  and  Peng Yang
Abstract
Metadherin (MTDH), also known as LYRIC or AEG-1, is an oncogene that enhances tumor progression, metastasis, drug resistance, and immune escape in various cancers by modulating multiple oncogenic pathways, including NF-κB, PI3K/AKT, Wnt/β-catenin, MAPK, and AMPK. Due to the unknown of the complete structure of MTDH, the deep mechanisms of MTDH and selective inhibitor [...] Read more

Novel sulindac derivatives for colorectal cancer chemoprevention that target cGMP phosphodiesterases to suppress Wnt/β-catenin transcriptional activity
by Sindhu Ramesh , Peyton Johnson , Khalda Fadlalla , Austin Moore , Chung-Hui Huang , Kristy Berry , Yulia Y Maxuitenko , Xi Chen , Adam B Keeton , Gang Zhou  and  Gary Piazza
Abstract
Approximately 28 million individuals in the United States face the risk of developing precancerous colonic adenomas (polyps) and potentially progressing to colorectal cancer (CRC). While a promising strategy for CRC prevention involves pharmacological intervention, such as cancer chemoprevention or interception, currently, there are no FDA-approved drugs capable of preventing t [...] Read more

E3 ubiquitin ligase-dependent regulatory mechanism of TRIM family in carcinogenesis
by Gui Zhang , Yunfang Zhang , Luxuan Chen , Langxia Liu  and  Xuejuan Gao
Abstract
Tripartite motif-containing (TRIM) proteins consist of over 80 proteins, the majority of which exhibit E3 ubiquitin ligase activity. E3 ligases have a critical role in various cellular processes by specifically recognizing and ubiquitinating substrate proteins to promote their proteasomal degradation or alter their activities. Numerous studies have indicated that TRIMs are invo [...] Read more

The roles of m6A RNA methylation modification in cancer stem cells: new opportunities for cancer suppression
by Haitao Chen , Huilong Li , Wanjin Shi , Hai Qin  and  Lufeng Zheng
Abstract
As a reversible post-transcriptional modification, N6-methyladeno sine is the most common form of RNA modification in eukaryotic mRNA. Cancer stem cells (CSCs), which are a subpopulation of cells with self-renewal ability and differentiation potential, have been regarded to be one of the roots of tumor occurrence, recurrence, and metastasis. Currently, numerous studies have dem [...] Read more

How Does Lncrna Regulation Impact Cancer Metastasis
by Abreto Devit Mancheng  and  Ugwemubwem Ossas
Abstract
Metastasis is the major cause of cancer-related mortality. Metastasis is a process through which cancer spreads from its initial location to other sections of the body. Cancer cells' epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), anoikis resistance, cell migration, and angiogenesis are all well-known steps in this process. Investigating the molecular processes that govern cancer meta [...] Read more

Repurposing anti-parasite benzimidazole drugs as selective anti-cancer chemotherapeutics
by Fatemeh Movahedi , Li Li  and  Zhi Ping Xu
Abstract
Cancer chemotherapy is generally associated with many severe adverse effects. Many cancer studies are currently focused on repurposing conventional non-toxic anti-parasite drugs for cancer treatment. Since cancer cells and parasites have many features in common, some anti-parasite drugs such as benzimidazoles have been recently found to possess the anti-cancer activity. Benzimi [...] Read more

by Jiayu Ding , Hao Shen , Jiaying Ji , Jiaxing Li , Wenbin Kuang , Zhongrui Shi , Dawei Wang , Yuanyuan Chen , Didi Wan , Xiao Wang  and  Peng Yang
Abstract
Adenosine alterations to RNA, which are largely determined by RNA modification writers (RMWs), are critical for cancer growth and progression. These RMWs can catalyze different types of adenosine modifications, such as N6-methyladenosine (m6A), N1-methyladenosine (m1A), alternative polyadenylation (APA), and adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing. These modifications have pr [...] Read more

Reassessing specificity/selectivity of taxane-based chemotherapy
by Elizabeth R. Smith , Zheshen Li , Zhe-Sheng Chen  and  Xiang-Xi Xu
Abstract
The paramount prerequisite for effective anti-cancer drugs is their ability to eradicate malignant cells while sparing non-cancer cells. The divergence in properties between malignant and non-cancer cells establishes a "therapeutic window," a critical consideration for achieving desirable treatment outcomes. Central to this is the imperative of a cancer drug's "selectivity and [...] Read more
